Consider translational motion of a body
mg sinq - fS = ma .(i)
Consider rotational motion of body about its centre of mass
.(ii)
Using the condition of rolling without slipping at contact, we have
Using the condition of static friction, we have
Time required to reach the ground

This is because acceleration depends on both force and mass (F = ma).
We know that from Newton's Third Law. While action-reaction forces are always equal, the objects they act on usually have very different masses.
If you consider a falling stone and the Earth as an action-reaction pair. The Third Law tells us,
Earth pulls stone down with force F
Stone pulls Earth up with equal force F
But Earth's mass is enormous, so its acceleration is tiny (F/huge mass = tiny acceleration)
Stone's mass is small, so its acceleration is large (F/small mass = large acceleration)
Result: Stone falls noticeably, Earth's motion is unnoticeable.
